HDlink drivers update is needed for a lot of us. HDlink is/was a good product for 1080p/2k 10bit monitoring on 'older' monitors, before the latest HDMI standards came to life (if they are good enough, i don't know).

A lot of DIT's were using them with LiveGrade. With a new or upgraded Mac they are forced to buy a new LUT box from someone else like Teradek, Flanders. Why make a product obsolete by not updating firmware. Everything else has been getting updates from Blackmagic

FYI, I was able to "reset" 2 HDLink Pro boxes by plugging them in to either an older Mac running an older OS, or a Windows PC and running the HDLink Utility. Thereafter, my MacBook Pro running 10.11.6 would recognize the boxes. Until the next day, of course.

I bought the HDlink Pro for my DIT cart. I returned it to B&H, NYC, a week later because of the lack of support by BMD in MacOS 11 and higher versions. I replaced it with the Flanders BoxI/0. It works in single and dual mode channel. It's recognized by Pomfort LiveGrade 3 and Filmlight, Prelight current beta version.

The lack of BMD support for third party LUT boxes is forcing DITs and DoPs at all levels to use other softwares for on-set color grading. Sadly, Davinci Resolve >Resolve Live> on-set feature can not be used as efficiently as other on-set production applications, as the ones mentioned above do, just to mention two.

As an on-set live color grading application, DR really slows down the DIT and DoP work on-set. I only used it occasionally in production for transcoding. It’s sad, because with this attitude BMD really reduces the value of Davinci Resolve in the film production field. It’s worse, because they do nothing about it and don't allow third party companies to use DR as a platform for other LUT box brands either. The same fact is happening with the Tangent Element lack of extended functions imposed by BMD. Really, does a US$3000 color grading surface represent a competition to their $29,000 controller, which belongs to a totally different market area?

No. In addition and unfortunately, it appears as discontinued at B&H store in New York City.

I got the Flanders FSI BoxI/O instead for Pomfort LiveGrade and other on-set color management applications I use. However, as any third party LUT boxes, the FSI BoxI/O is not supported by Davinci Resolve. I hope this would change in the near future.

I'm very happy with FSI BoxI/O, except that it doesn't have an LED display either scroll buttons to independently control the different operations in the box as the Teradek does. But it's the only LUT box with true independent (17x17x17 size) two channel. When used in single channel it's a 33x.33.33 size.The Teradek Colr Duo is a one Channel In and two Out.

Yea, Sucks that Blackmagic has abandoned it! A simple solution is to run a virtual machine of either a older version of macOS, or windows, and pass the USB port to it. Works with VMware Fusion. Should also work on VirtualBox (Free), but I haven't tested it.

That's exactly my thougts! Please BM, bring as a real live grading option like in Filmlight's Prelight!With: direct connection to various LUT boxes and the ability to do all corrections that are possiblein Resolve. The uploaded 3D LUTs for the LUT boxes are built of primaries and secondaries, but noshapes and keyers and else. Have a look at Prelight! If you can deliver that, than I'm in! Maybe youcan implement something simelar than Filmlights BLG files, which contain all grading information forone clip including metadata.

After installing everything. Opens hdlink app on windows. The app will see all hdlinks hardware. Close parallels. Now open hdlink app on mac. Now the hdlink app sees the hdlinks hardware as well.

For me it worked great hopefully it works for everyone and I also hope me sharing this doesn't get BM the chance to update blackmagic video drive and disable this for ever.

Running this on MAC OS X 10.12.6 and Windows 7

Good luck!

I successfully got 2 HDLinks to show in Livegrade using your workaround, I don't know for sure if they work until I generate a signal. Should have something to run through them in 8 days, will update then.
